Power the Future. Build the Code Behind Critical Systems. A vehicle’s electronic controls and a medical device may serve very different purposes, but both critically depend on software that must ...

This lesson starts a new segment about Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) — an important set of concepts critical to understanding any modern software, not just modern embedded software. As usual in ...

Structures (or “structs” in C) allow you to group several related variables and treat them as one unit. They are a mechanism for extending the type system of the C language by introducing user-defined ...

When you think about bare-metal programming, you probably envision an electrical engineer sitting at a workbench, pouring through hundreds of pages of low-level register definitions. Once the correct ...

This engineering specialization provides students with the fundamentals of embedded operating systems including a working understanding of how to configure and deploy a Linux based Embedded System.

If you’re an embedded developer, you probably hear about all the cool things in AI, like AI agents, synthetic data, multimodal systems, and more. But let’s be honest, you’re probably ignoring quite a ...

Successfully developing and launching an embedded system requires a wide range of skills in a variety of engineering disciplines. Every embedded systems development team needs knowledge in eight ...

Followers of my posts are likely very aware of my interest in how embedded hardware advances have been changing the face of automation. Last September, I reported on how this trend is now extending to ...

Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

Testing embedded systems, or closed hardware environments where users don't realize the embedded interface exists, is challenging and different because there is no user interface (UI). Instead, the ...

Build Safety-Critical Embedded Systems That Perform Under Pressure. When software lives inside machines, failure isn’t an inconvenience—it’s a safety, reliability, and security risk. From vehicles and ...
